In a perfect world, security would be considered throughout all phases of development. In reality however, security is often only a consideration at a late stage in the SDLC. Besides the technical controls, the ASVS requires processes to be in place that ensure that the security has been explicitly addressed when planning the architecture of the application or API, and that the functional and security roles of all components are known. Since single page applications and act as clients to remote API or services, it must be ensured that appropriate security standards are also applied to those services - testing the app in isolation is not sufficient.
 
 
 
The category “V1” lists requirements pertaining to architecture and design of the app. As such, this is the only category that does not map to technical test cases in the OWASP Testing Guide. To cover topics such as threat modelling, secure SDLC, key management, users of the ASVS should consult the respective OWASP projects and/or other standards such as the ones linked below.
